adam is also good

i just setup a wifi network for a mate and he lives 5 to 5.5 kms from the exchange his download frequency was only 2,500KB and upload was 600KB this on a ADSL2+ plan but on there webpage you can change your settings and try get better speeds which we got 3,600KB down and 1000KB up

Another vote for Internode here - always lightning quick and phone help desk is open until midnight every weeknight, and they are very helpful if you have any issues.

I think $79.95 for 40Gb on the 24,000/1,000 plan (waiting for DSL2 currently running at 1,500/256) is bloody awesome for the service level you get. Also there are shiteloads of sites where the data is unmetered - especially Internodes own games and file servers.

tell me more about the wifi Steve. As I am in Northgate and we have some povo piggy-back exchange which is optical and runs a rim, I am told I can never get ADSL2. We didn't get normal ADSL until like a year after people in Northfield and Oakden could get it. I am interested in a wireless solution.

Gonna vote for node here as well, as time goes on they always offer MORE for your money, never less. Every 6-12 months my limit increases and they offer more services. Awesome reliability, awesome speeds (living 100m from the exchange probably has something to do with this) and zero downtime.

sweet thanks for the info SuperMod :( .... Chops and I have spoken many times about why isps don't offer a 'up to 8,000k' service - it only makes sense! Even if I got 3k I would be happy! It's a bugger about the uploads only being up to 384k though - I want to upload more torrents to get more credits!

Speaking of torrents, I am going to start encoding some of the 'Formula D' episodes I have taped, and I will upload them in the near future and will post torrent details for those interested. FYI the show is about the SSCA American Formula D (drift) competition, and features the likes of Rhys Millen. Bloody awesome series!

I got Telstra Bigpond cable... its all that was available in my area at one time, but now I have to wait till end of contract to quit cause its not worth the hassle of them finding my foxtel isnt exactly legit in the way that it is set up not in the way it is paid for... (disconected and not working booster and splitter box).

Im going with node after bigpond cable... only good thing about cable is... i dont know. i think its more reliable.

-setting up programs for torrents and downloading p2p programs is much easier. (Stupid adsl static IPs give me the shits when my mates want me to route the bastards).

The good thing about cable is its downstream is/can be damn fast. More often than not it is quicker than dsl2 unless you are sitting right next door to the exchange.

But cables upstream sucks.. DSL2, I've came to love my 100kb/s upstream.

Internode only offers static ip's for their SOHO plans, I also believe they have or are about to implement a feature where the user can turn off static and run with a dynamic ip if they wish. The soho plans also offer annex-m for those who really love their upstream.

If you don't turn off your computer or connection you can have the same IP for several weeks anyway.

Yep, dynamic or static.. Its no real biggie. I personally would like a static but not worth the extra when services such as noip etc can essentially do the same thing.

    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
    • Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
